Huh, never paid much attention, but despite listening to 'Wake Me Up [Before you Go-Go]' thousands of times, I took it for granted that the lyric was

'you make the sun shine brighter on the darkest day'

then I actually paid attention, just once

'you make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day.'

Doesn't even really make much difference to the meaning, other than to fittingly make the song even gayer. ;)

For years I had no idea what was being sang....

....then at a party a guy sang what was really being said, yep.....dirty.

Listen for.....I felt my bone ah in her hair

After the guitar break....stick, stick, my finger in her hole of love

Wasn't a kid when I discovered Charlie Patton, actually knew all about his legend before ever hearing him. I was stunned.....

I love this guy and was so sorry to hear of his passing, but damned I love his music!

They had another song in which I was sure they were singing, "glorified virgin on a pelican", but was disappointed when I learned it was "glorified version of a pellet gun".
